DRAMATIC NOTES.

There is succession of pretty love
scenes between SEAMAN and KITTY
O'SHEA in ''Shane-na-L Lawn" 1t is not
acting, either. They are sure enough
lovers. For years KITTY has never
nursed a thought that was not Shane'S;
and. as for Shane, why, KITTY is his
life, the ocean to the river of his
thoughts which terminates all. They
cannot hide their love even on the
stage. You can discern the tone of the
lover III the tenderness of his speech to
her, and you can see the light of love in
Shane's eyes when he looks at her.
And KITTY, the love-stricken girl,
adOres the carpet that Shane walks on.
Her face glOws with pride every time
her lover gets an encore. 1t is wreathed
with smiles when he sings his songs the
best. Her eyes follow him in every
movement. There is not kiss to choose
which loves the other best. And why
should there be? Shane and KITTY are
brother and sister, who are a Ii the world
to each other.
The old songs are the best. There are
none of SCANLAN's songs which elicit
so much applause or arouse so much
enthusiasm as ''Peek-a-Bo0." 1t is a
chestnut, but it is sound and with a
rich flavor to it.
The bill will be changed tonight.
1.-The Irish Minstrel will be the per-
Torrance.
J. H. HANSON, advance agent for the
''Michael Strogoff'' company, is in the
city, arranging for his company'S per-
Torrance at the Grand the first half of
next week.

sentence such person becomes lunatic
or insane, then in case the punishment
becomes capital the execution thereof
shall be stayed until the recovery of
said person from the insanity or lunatic,
In all of these cases it shall be the duty
OF the court to impanel jury to try the
question whether the accused be at the
time, of impaneling insane or lunatic'
In view of that section it becomes a
question whether the jurisdiction of the
criminal court in such case is exclusive
of the jurisdiction of the county court.
If this case falls within the jurisdiction
of this court the petition is made out in
conformity with law and the petitioner
is entitled to any relief at the hands of
the court, the court will not hesitate to
act. You may give notice for 2 o'clock
this afternoon to the states attorney
that you will renew your application.
That will be written notice, certified
to by the parties named in the petition.
L will hear the matter at 2 o'clock. This
will give you two hours notice."
Mr.. Hunt handed in his petition,
which was placed on file, and left the
court room.
AT 3 O'Clock the hearing of the argu-
ments of the petition was taken up by
the court.
THE USUAL FORMAL NOTICE
was served on States Attorney Grinnell
about O'Clock. 1t simply informed the
latter that the motion for writ of in
QUESTION. directed TO the sheriff, COM
manding him to bring Louis Lingg be-
fore the court for trial for insanity, had
been filed. When the argument COM
menced this afternoon the case
which counsel for the con-
demned had to make was the
showing of sufficient grounds to warrant
the court in Issuing the writ on the
sheriff commanding Lingg to be brought
from his cell before the court. Judge
Prendergast cut the proceedings short
by refusing to interfere in Lingg's be-
half, and sustaining State Attorney
Grinnel's argument that the prisoner
was out of the jurisdiction of the county
court. The court said that it would not
undertake to pass on the case until the
criminal court refused to do so, and MIR.
Hunt announced that he intended to
carry the matter to the latter tribunal
tomorrow morning. NeSSrs. Hunt and
Herman, late this afternoon, went to the
criminal court and filed a petition for an
inquiry into Lingg'S sanity with the
clerk, after which they sought Judge
Bakers court room to lay the matter be-
fore him and ask him to interfere. The
judge was not in, and they went out on
the street to find him. In case they do
not succeed in getting the case before
Judge Baker tonight they will appear
before him tomorrow morning.

erage ability. But they are club
men and society swells. Thus they are
disqualified for politicians, from the
simple fact that a politician to be sue
ceSsful in this country must be in SYM
pathy with American ideas. When an
American starts out early in life to at
feet English mannerisms and to adopt
English social customs. he virtually ex-
patriates himself. He Immediately ar
rays himself in opposition to the popu-
lar ioeas of his own country, and if
political oStracism follows, he has no
right to complain of the results of his

MIcHIGAsIAlE, Mich, Nov. 9.-The ex-
tension of the Chicago & Northwestern
railway from Ishpeming to this place
has come to grief. The road wants to
pass over the tracks of the Duluth, South
Shore & Atlantic, which is competing
line, and strongly objects to allowing
the Northwestern a passage. If the
Chicago d. Northwestern cannot secure
the right of way over the Duluth, South
Shore d Atlantic tracks it will be COM
PEELED to climb a steep bluff which lies
south of the town and tear down large
number of trestles, ore pockets and
buildings belonging to the Michigamme
Iron company. and to which the Michi-
CANINE company strongly objects. The
Chicago & Northwestern is at present
between the devil and the deep sea as
far as its Michigamme terminus is con-
cerned, and all work on the extension
is StODDed,

AChiId Assassin,

ATLANTA, Ga, Nov. 9.-The young
est murderer in Georgia was sentenced
yesterday in the superior court to life
term in the penitentiary. His name is
Charles Henry LOcksley, and he is but
eleven years of age and is as black as
polished ebony. About two months
ago Milo Thomas. well known young
man of Augusta, was stabbed and killed
instantly by Locklsley. Thomas was
standing in front of the Central railroad
depot when the lad passed with a cigar
cite picture i'm his hand. Thomas took
the card from the boy, when the latter
INDUCED in considerable profanity.
Thomas slapped him smartly for this,
whereupon Locksley quickly drew
large pocket-knife and stabbed him;
The jury was out but few minutes and
returned a verdict of murder, with the
recommendation to life imprisonment.
The boy received the sentence indiffer-
emily.

TRANSIT RATES.
A Large Stock of Transit on Hand
in the Twin Cities.

The statement is made that there is
in the st. Paul and Minneap oils market
100000 pounds of milling i'll transit,
to which 100,000.000 pounds more would
be added if it was given out that the
system would be abolished before the
notice would take effect. This surplus
milling in transit is ruling at sc
hundred although it is said
to have cost the holders from ~
to 9 cents. The holders of the transit
coupons cannot very well use them as
against the ~ cent flat rate made by
the Burlington 81 Northern and the
Minnesota d Northwestern. The Chi
cago Times says that the redemption of
the vast amount of transit is the main
obstacle in the way of advancing grain
rates from the Northwest, and its pres
ence on the market is what makes the
recent advance in the through rate an
absurdity, except as it helps to bolster
I'D the intermediate rates. With plenty
of transit for sale at Minneapolis and
st. Paul at from to ~ cents hundred
it is hardly possible that shippers will
pay an alleged tariff rate of 1919 cents.
No fault is to be found with any OF the
roads for attempting to advance the
grain tariff, for even the most rampant
demagogue would scarcely claim that
~ cents est. Paul to ChicagO) was, or is
a reasonable" rate, but, on the other
hand, the Burlington 81 Northern can
not be blamed for declining to accede to
an advance which would virtually force
it out of the business.

1T is SETTLED.

1t is hardly worth while to go through
the formality of a presidential election
next year. The result in New York
Tuesday virtually settles it. 1t is uni
versally conceded that New York is the
pivotal state, add it was by common con-
sent agreed that last tuesdays election
would definitely fix the status of the
state in advance. There were three
uncertain quantities to enter into the
canvass of 1883, which it was desirable
TO have understood in advance of that
time. They were the strengths re-
spectiyely of HENRY GEORGE and the
Prohibition parties, and the degree of
magic attached to an honOred name.
The test in all three particulars has
been fully made and the result is favor
able to the Democratic party. 1t is
shown cOnclusively that the Republican
party cannot live ON the memories
of its once distinguished leaders.
The HENRY GEORGE movement, which
was encouraged by the Republicans Tor
the purpose of weakening the Demo
Gratis. proved a boomerang. And the
Prohibition party grows to be more and
more an obstacle in the way of Repub-
lican success. Tuesdays result demon
strateS that New York is an impreg-
Dable Democratic state and can be relied
on to cast its full electoral vote for
GROVER CLEVELAND in 1888. The
moral of the New York victory is worth
half hundred electoral votes outside
of New York to the Democratic party.
With the absolute certainty of defeat
staring them full in the face the Repub-
licans will go into next years canvass
in such half-hearted way as to insure
all the doubtful states to the Democrats.

Married While Drunk.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. "A con-
tractor named Bracken came here from
Pennsylvania about two years ago, and
last summer was married to an esti-
mable lady of this place. Soon after
the marriage he was visited bya woman
named Kerr, with whom he admits
having been intimate, and confronted
with marriage certificate. Bracken
finally remembered that on the night Of
the alleged marriage he was in the
company of the Kerr woman and be-
came intoxicated, and concluded that
while with her the pretended ceremony
took place. Bracken has petitiOned the
court to annul the So-called marriage.
The Kerr woman demanded $1,000, say
ing if she was not paid that amount she
would sue Bracken for bigamy.

1SSO-the convention that nominated
HANCOCK for the presidency. At the
very beginning of its session the conven-
ton was confronted with an ugly
tontest from New York. A Tammany
delegation headed by JOHN KELLY ap-
peared on the floor asking for the seats
occupied by the regularly accredited
delegates. There was bad blood be-
tween the contesting factions, and the
feeling prevailed in the convention that
something ought to be done to restore
harmony among the Democrats of the
Empire State. A proposition was made
to admit both delegations, which was
earnestly and elOquently supported by
Gov. HUBBARD, of Texas. When HUB
BARD closed his great speech i'll advO-
cacy of harmony it looked as if the COM
promise proposition were going to carry.
49,
1t was at this juncture of the proceed
ings the chairman of the convention an
nOunced that the claims of the ''regu-
lars" would be heard through their
spokesman, JOHN r. FELLOWS, of New
York. Outside of the New York dele
CATION probably not dozen people in
the hall had the remotest idea who
JOHN r. FELLOWS was. But by the
time he had closed his speech he was as
famous as DAN DoUGHERTY. 1t was
the most convincing argument ever de-
livered before deliberative body. The
force of HUBBARD's eloQuence melted
away like dew in the morning sun be-
fore FELLOWS irresistible logic.
~
. Like nearly all men of great genius,
FELLOWS has been cropping his way
along the bottom of New York politics,
while men of less merit and far less
ability have been floating on the surface.
1t was the result of wrangle among
the leaders of factions that gave FELL
LOWS his chance for nomination that
his conspicuous ability and services to
party entitled him to. But no poor fell
low ever got such a shaking up of his
private character as FELLOWS did. 1t
was a terribly dirty fight the combina-
ton made against him. His fOibleS and
weaknesses were magnified into crimes
by the prosecuting opposition. But the
day has passed for that kind of dirty
work in politics. The masses of the peO-
pie are sure to resent it.

He and j. G. BOyden Invented 1t
Many Thousand Years A 90.

He and j. G. Boyden Invented 1t
Many Thousand Years Ago.
''Say, Dixon, what is all this talk
about transit? Everybody seems to be
almost or quite crazy about what they
call milling in transit. Now what does
it mean?"
w. III. Dixon-Well, young man, you
have just struck the right man to give
you what you want. Whenever you
want to find out anything always go to
headquarters. Six or eight thousand
years ago, when this world was a good
deal younger than it now is and a great
deal less wicked, before the anarchists,
or George Francis Train, or taxes,
or street assessments and cOckroaches
were invented, in an age when
a very highly educated and scientific
people existed, they wanted something
to indicate movement, speed and hurry
up generally, so some ingenious fellow
that belonged to one of their colleges
invented word to denote speed. l do
not call to mind, now, the word we used
i'll those days to signify milling in tran
sit. This term is sort of a literary
crazy quilt that was made up by the
Romans to designate the meaning of the
word that transit stands for, and which
| was perfectly familiar with in my
youth. Milling in
TRANSIT WAS INVENTED
by j. c. Boyden, of the freight depart
ment of the Milwaukee road, and my
self. We found that away out West the
crops of wheat were large and our road
ran out to the region. We also knew
that other roads had their eyes on this
wheat and we determined to seal all we
could of it for the Milwaukee q St.Paul
road. We therefore made arrangements
with those who had wheat to sell, for a
through rate to Chicago for certain
sum payable in advance, with the priv
ilege of having the wheat stopped at
certain places along the line where
there were flour mills, and ground into
-four, and to carry the product to Chi
cago. When the wheat was stopped off
to be ground the road gave
the owner of the wheat memo
randum emitting him to have
a certain amount of -four carried to
Chicago for certain proportion or part
of the through freight agreed upon.
This is the transit, or milling in transit.
BOyden and have had great deal of
fun out of it, We 'builded better than
we knew The scheme has worked to
a charm. The boys on the other roads
do not seem to catch on to the nub of
the matter, and are always getting
tangled up whenever they attempt to
handle this transit business. 1t is
kind of trigOnometry on wheels, and
beats the lightning calculator out of
sight. I've been trying to have patent
secured on it, but Boyden is such
baShful kind of a man that | have not
done it up to this time. But / think we
will teach the boys lesson or two yet
in these matters.

Behind the Bars.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Fred Horst and
Emil Wende, two well-known anarch
lists, were before Justice Lyon this
morning, the former charged with con-
spiracy and carrying concealed weapons,
and the latter with conspiracy alone.
These two men were arrested, as an
nounced in these dispatches last night.
The cases were continued until the 10th
inst. in bonds of $1,000 and $500 re-
spectively, in default of which they
we're locked up. Horst and Wende are
members of regular anarchistic group
which numbers thirty-six men. 1t was
resolved by the group to purchase arms,
and Horst was instructed to purchase
revolvers for his associates. and he and
Wende went down town to purchase
the pistols. The group had been sus-
pected for some time, and while the
meeting was in progress an officer was
in hiding in the room and heard the
whole affair. A watch was placed and
they were arrested.

GUARDING GRINNELL.
The Police Capture a Suspicious
Character Near His Residence.

CHICAGO, Nov. 9.-Numerous suspi-
ci0uS characters have of late been seen
in the vicinity of States Attorney Grin
nell's house, in Aldine square, and the
guards stationed around the residence
to prevent the fulfillment of the many
threats made against him by the anarch-
iStic SympathizerS have had their hands
full. The facts have been carefully
suppressed, but sample found its way
into court to-day. Tuesday evening
Officer Stahl saw strange looking man
lOafing about the square and watched
him closely. As soon as the coast APP
peared clear the man Quickened his
pace and ran up the steps of Mr.. Grin
nell's residence. The officer approached
and the fellow ran off, but was caught
after sharp run. When brought be-
fore magistrate the prisoner gave the
name of William Troutwine and said he
could speak no English. 1t was appar-
ent that he understood everything that
was said and when told that his dodge
was discovered, pretended to be insane.
The magistrate sent him to the bride
well for ''disorderly conduct" as moth
ing of compromising nature was
found on him. The officer said that if
he had been provided with bomb Or
anything of the kind he might easily
have thrown it away before he was
caught, as the night was very dark.
